    Bumped into Merry Clayton at the Gardenia nightclub in Hollywood back in the mid-1980s. She was walking out as I was walking in and I just sort of blurted out "Merry Clayton! You totally made that Stones song!" and she said, "Yes, honey, and Mick knows it too!" So many people all these years later, the two things that stand out for them most are Keith's guitar intro and Merry's lifting the whole affair into outer space with her glorious voice.

    I think this why so many songs are beloved by The Stones. Their form is pretty solid, but they were written to be played and were played loose and almost freeform so every time they're played, it's never the same way twice so the song is constantly evolving and is a living thing for them. And the best part is when covering it, you can put your own stamp on it!

The Let it Bleed album was second to none, at the time.

    In the Maton museum there is a 1954 Maton AM3 amp that I sold them about 20yrs ago. I used it for ages having swapped it for a bag of pot from a lad who rescued going up a conveyer into a crusher at a recycling centre. Loving loud music and guitars I live on 3 acres in the Adelaide hills and have regular jams without upsetting others! Love ya work Tim!

    I got to see the Stones in 1975 when they played The Garden for 6 nights and using the Lotus Stage. I was at 6 shows, the great thing was that tickets were $12.50 each for tickets in the Red Section of MSG.

    Ron Wood when with The Faces and Keith both just created some of the sweetest rhythms in all of rock. I really feel to play there stuff correctly is just as much a challenge as any shredding. Partly is because so much of it comes out of them, the pulse of their heart and soul. It’s almost like a guitar fingerprint.

    That fast lick you did that you said wasn't really the type of like for this song was actually brilliant. Especially the way you ended the solo. It actually would sound good played only once like you said. It shows the difference between the simple yet effective licks and the more sophisticated runs and you can see how the more simple pentatonic fits this music better. Still that lick had feeling and melted my face at the same time.

RIP Charlie Watts. You referenced playing high up on the neck, a VERY Keith thing to do. Also Keith's love of Chuck Berry. When he inducted Chuck into the Hall of Fame, he admitted he lifted everything Chuck ever did.

    The guitar broke itself after realizing it had played the best song ever written and realized there was no need to carry on. Imagine being the guy who left your guitar in your old apartment when you moved out because you realize your better at badminton then Keith Richards stumbles in the room in a drug induced trance, picks up your old guitar, changes music history with it and then the guitar explodes...
